Yea that true, but the one game mix up i would like to see is Toroid Terror/Triple Play mix together and Raising the bar where you do a pull up as the final part

Re: 2013 Game?
How about a button or a pressure plate that robots activate that changes the field in some way? i.e. one robot stays gets on a pressure plate that opens a door and holds it while a teammate goes through. If the first robot gets pushed off of there by an opponent, the second robot will be stuck until somebody can open the door and save him.

Re: 2013 Game?
I personally want a game based loosely on racing, maybe have the robots go around an obstacle course of some sort while carrying an object like a crate or a ball, and take the average of each alliances' robots' times and who evers faster while still carrying the ball would win

Very cool Idea. Always thought that some way of disabling an opponent would be interesting.

The only major event going on lately (that I can think of) is the robot landing on Mars. So I think that this year's game will be about the Martian landing.
Also, NASA's support and involvement in FIRST makes it even more likely. The question is how would they do that. IMHO, landing robots from the ceiling seems a bit outlandish.
